Primal KingDinosaurs ForumTheory on Megalodon size.

Also I think whales are the largest swimming animal but not fish cuz they are mammals. Also, lio probably wasn't megalodon sized. While I think Megalodon was 45 ft tops, Lio in my opinion was 40 ft tops. The biggest fish was Leedsycthis I believe.

@Mr. Happy,

Jaws of megalodon haven't been discovered yet. They were custom casts based off of Great White Shark jaws, although the jaws may have been closer to cookie cutter shark jaws.

Whales, right? I do believe things like Liopleurodon and Icthiosaurs are classfied as warm blooded, but then again, I'm not sure. Good thing there are opinions, eh? You can think what you want, and I can think what I want.

@MrHappy, actually, there are bigger fish than Megalodon.

It's entirley possible, but haven't jaws been discovered? I still like the concept of the largest, most badass fish to ever live being almost 80 feet long.

I never thought of it from a destructive standpoint, I was going for the maximum security/dinosaurs aren't escaping.

 

Thanks guys, Terrance is coming up shortly (Part 5 of the Rise of the 2015 park)

x_paden_xJurassic World ForumCraziest Dinosaur DAYdream?

I once had a day dream, Where I was stuck in math class (Freaking math class... Probably because I was in the class at the time) And suddenly the power went out... Which tends to happen, But then the class disapeered... Strange. Usually when the lunch bell went I'd hear it... But when I came to the window... There was just an arm ... decaptitated arm lying on the floor, Blood leading out to the corner with a sickening sound of bones being crushed... thats when I heard it the call of the velociraptor, I quickly hid behind the door as they trotted into the hallway. I risked a peer out of the window I noticed they were working on opening the door of the classroom oppisite, Then with a click... The door lock opened and the raptors pushed it in... Screams and much more echoed from the room...  Before I could even think to do anything a raptor walked out of the room, Wiping blood off of its snout with the back side of its hand...

 

'pack behavior' I shivered, Remember a part like that in a book I read, Suddenly I noticed a shot gun just lying on the floor I thought to myself 'What the hell is a shot gun doing in a high school?' I picked it up, Noticing a box of shells tipped over on a nearby desk. The gun was jammed. Which didn't suprise me, There was about 4 people in my grade who spent enough time around guns to know how to fix it... One of them was me. 

 

Unjamming the shell which had gotten caught when it began to eject, I quickly loaded it as I heard a hiss at the door. Turning, the door handle began to shake. Almost as if it was being jimmied, I quickly loaded in the last shell and aimed it at the raptors, suddenly the door swung open, I fired 4 rounds... When the smoke of the barrel began to clear, The door was plastered in blood and holes where the buck shot had gotten lodged in. At my feet lay two velociraptors, I raised the gun in the air in triumph... Then the spriklers went off, I quickly ran out of the class room... Suddenly A t-rex crashed through at the other side of the corridor, The class room I had just been in was a segment of portables, The hallway began to slide towards the rex,  I shot at it but it didn't work... As I heard the t-rexes roar begin to rumble through my body... It started making the sound of a bell ringing...

 

I snapped out of the dream ( Missed the entire lesson XD bombed the test), Went to lunch, Finished school for the day... But when I got home and the bus drove away As I began my walk down the drive way...

 

I had the strangest feeling...

 

Like I was being Hunted...

Or, he's hinting towards the arrival of Terrance. Remember T. rex is among the most powerful carnivores and so an even larger Rex than thorn could cause serious damage. :)

K, after an overwhelming amount of votes Spino and Rex are a grand finale, with Rex vs Trike kicking it off!

That or simply because some dinosaurs could practically cause earthquakes ;)

If I'm right, S-Rex has been banned. So, you won't be hearing from him.

Looks like we are all biased Spino haters who are seeking to anger S-Rex and FACT DUDE. I want to see what they think of this.

We've told you left and right that you weren't gonna convince any of us. Don't know why you didn't listen.

 

MrHappy, I agree with just about everything here :)

Rex and Spino last.

 

PS- I did an FBR bonus fight between Rexy and Lady Margaret, so T-rex vs Trike has been done before. But' I'd love to see what you come up with.

New evidence suggests that Tyrannosaurus Rex looked more like this:

I had one were I had the ability to transform into a Spinosaurus that breathed Lightning and over a hundred feet long and had dragon wings. I flew around and  attacked every criminal in sight. After a while these terror it's jets came and attacked the Golden Gate bridge. They almost made it were it crashed into the water, but thanks to me I saved the people, killed the terrorists and was called a hero from then on. I actually used this daydream wrote a paper on it in school.

I'm guessing that the outbreak is going to have something to do with an Earthquake. ;)

Yeah, Rex vs. Spino is going to be the most important fight, so it should be last.

GodzillasaurusDinosaurs ForumMy basic opinion on Spinosaurus
And so what have I been doing for the past 1 and a half months!? I have explained to you guys time and time again that you are hypocrites. You guys claim it only to be fact when YOU say it is. I'm sorry, but I have now lost faith in this forum. I'm sorry, but I am going somewhere that I don't end up explaining the difference between opinion and fact in the middle of a discussion.

Quote: spinosaurs were light weight animals. not particularly heavy at all. a thirty foot Baryonyx, for example would weigh around two tons. Meanwhile, just for example, a thirty foot tyrannosaur(Daspletosaurus) would weigh in the neighborhood of 3.5 to 4 tons. a thirty foot long Acrocanthosaurus would weigh in the 4 ton ball park as well.

-Many reconstructions point to spinosaurus being a relatively bulky animal, actually. But it is hypothetical at most, as we do not actually have that much of spinosaurus to work with. Spinosaurines seem to be particularly more heavily-built than baryonychines (which were particularly gracile animals), especially in the case with spinosaurus where a more robust build seems to be more necessary to compensate for its enlarged spinal column. Spinosaurus was likely not a very gracile animal in terms of body morphology... What you said right there is basically along the same lines as what I am saying; it is hypothetical. But I am no expert on sizes

Quote: you don't have its forearms. or anything close to arms.

We can infer this based on what we have found from other spinosaurs, particularly baryonyx. Such a lifestyle would make this completely reasonable to believe as well, as powerful forearms would be particularly useful in fishing.

it was a megalosaur. Mainstream paleontology would have to disagree with you, mate. Paul Sereno put the Spinosaurs in a different group in 98.

And what group might that be? Carnosauria? Ceratosauria? Because much of what I have read indicates that spinosauridae was included in megalosauria (spinosaurus diverged more recently from megalosaurus and its closest kin than megalosaurs did from carnosaurs). Of course, I guess your sources are more accurate just cause you said so...

Quote: The Spinosaurus in Jurassic Park III was all sorts of wrong, it wasn't long enough, nor was it high enough, but it was too muscular, the snout was too wide, the arms were too big and quite a lot of what was shown as body mass was in fact part of the sail/ridge. A couple years ago people thaught that Spinosaurus was 15-18 m long and weighed about 20 tons, the newest estimations are at 12-15 m length and 5-8 tons weight. I wouldn't say that it dwarfed Rex since it was slightly longer, but slightly lighter.

And where is your source for this? Being so much larger than genera like tyrannosaurus, it would not be affected THAT much by its proportions in terms of being comparable in weight, and even then, they are hypothetical.

Quote: reliable, unlike your wikapedia one:

So I guess that my image that I posted (which was on Wikipedia) is photoshopped? I have only been citing Wikipedia for pictures...

Quote: http://www.jurassictimes.com/spinosaurus-aegyptiacus

46 feet long, huh? Well what ever happened to the 56 foot estimate? But overall, I do agree with that source. But one thing that you guys need to realize is that, to analyze the creature's snout and dentition, we really don't need sources. The same thing goes for its entire body as well. Reconstructions are made using what evidence we already have, and theories are made from those. So if you can explain to me why that requires a source and makes you right, please explain to me the details.
